You can think of placement as the moment of putting something into its spot, plus the decision of which spot that should be. A hand sets a vase down on one exact corner of the table: before, the thing had nowhere to be; now it has somewhere. Whatever gets placed — a piece of furniture, an on a page, or a person who needs a home or a job — the picture stays the same: finding a place, and giving it to something.

placement 可以想成「把東西放到它該在的位置」的那一下,加上「決定要放在哪裡」的那個判斷。想像一隻手把花瓶放到桌子某一角:原本它沒有落腳的地方,現在有了。英文把這個動作變成名詞以後,放的東西可以換——一件家具、版面上的一則廣告,或是一個需要住處、需要工作的人——但畫面都還是同一個:找到一個位置,然後把它安進去。
